Active Schools
Callum Oates
Hi there, my name is Callum Oates and I am the Active Schools Coordinator for the
Girvan Cluster. The schools included in the Girvan Cluster are Barr Primary School,
Barrhill Primary School, Ballantrae Primary School, Colmonell Primary School, Dailly
Primary School, Ivergarven Primary School, Girvan Primary School and Sacred Heart
Primary School.
As an avid sports player and enthusiast I believe all children should participate
and enjoy a healthy lifestyle. I have the responsibility of providing my schools
with as many opportunities as possible for pupils to be involved in physical activity.
Working in conjunction with local sports clubs and organisations plus willing volunteers,
I hope to provide a vast and varied amount of activities.
If children sustain an active lifestyle they are more likely to carry on the trend
into adult life. Therefore as an Active Schools Coordinator it is vital to introduce
children to activity which is fun as early as possible. Providing a range of events
should encourage all pupils to experience a pursuit which they will enjoy and will
continue to be involved in as they grow older.
If you have any questions relating to Active Schools in Girvan please do not hesitate
to get in touch. Anyone interested in volunteering should get in touch with me as
soon as possible.
